inexplicably hawley is right about this and it is almost unbelievable that he supports the right position here. corporate money should be out of politics and it's weird for me to agree with an insurrectionist that deserves to be in prison, but defeating citizens united is one of the most important things in saving democracy ironically enough.

100% agree. It felt very bizarre to agree with his take. And then to read McConnell's bitch ass reasons for keeping it because it gives him money and power.

Regarding the elections, I don't know about other states but Virginia has all their State Legislature / General Assembly seats up for vote this year. While Virginia has trended blue lately it's still pretty purple overall. And with a R governor there's a chance a closely split State Senate and House could turn fully red. And then we'd have to deal with shit like this (sorry it's a Reddit post and not an actual news story):
